🕵️‍♀️ Kathleen came on a tour in August of 2025. Her review was glowing, just the like the sunrise. 🌄

"That was by far the BEST guided tour I've been on. Helen was incredibly knowledgeable. She gave us tips and pointers for other places to recreate in the area. Sunrise was spectacular. Highly recommend."

🌎 Happy Earth Day! 🌱

From orange canyon walls to glowing sunrises and high desert skies, reminds us just how special this planet is.

As Colorado celebrates its 150th anniversary (and Cortez it’s 140th!) we’re honoring not just the history - but the wild, rugged beauty that makes this state so remarkable. These landscapes have stories etched into every cliffside wall and winding trail, stretching back much farther than the 150 years of statehood.

So on this day, take a moment to go outside, breath, appreciate the land beneath your feet, and relish in the memories of those that stood there before you.

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

Weekends in southwest Colorado are never boring! 🏜️
Last Saturday I hiked the Sand Canyon Trail (7.33 miles with all the spur trails I did to see the Pueblos!)

The desert is coming to life, cactus are starting to bloom, the geckos 🦎 are running about! It was a glorious day and an equally glorious hike…except for the blisters on my feet!

And shoutout to for the hat that protected my face from the sun! ☀️
